A/N: eh. pretty quick write, like, 10-20 minutes. i thought it was going to end up being a multi-fill, but alas. not to proud of this one. hope you like it anyways.

The Turian C-Sec officer stared, momentarily dumbfounded, as the human who had only seconds ago been pulled out from underneath a table ran towards his aggressor. He made it about halfway before the Turian snapped out of it and came back to her senses. She bound forward and grabbed his uninjured arm, pulling him back.
“Sir, I don’t know what you’re high on, but-” she started, but was cut off by a growl from him.
“I’m not high, officer! This asshole just threw a table at me, you can be damn sure I’m gonna go after him!” The man pushed himself out of the officer’s grasp and threw a punch at the obviously drunk Batarian who had decided it would be a good idea to throw tables.
“Sir, please! I can see your bone sticking out of your arm!” It was true; the bone had fractured and was stabbing out of his skin on his forearm, yet he didn’t seem to notice as he wrestled the Batarian and threw punches. It took two more officers just to get the Human off of him, despite how profusely he was bleeding.
“He’s lost a lot of blood. We should get him to a hospital,” her colleague muttered as he pushed the handcuffed Batarian into the C-Sec skycar.
“Sure. Let me go…” she paused. The Human was gone. She blinked twice. “Get him?”
“What’s it?” the other officer asked, then looked around, noticing the absence of a certain human, but the presence of a blood trail. He scowled. “What the hell? How hasn’t he passed out yet?”
The female Turian was just as perplexed as he was. She didn’t understand how the human could even stand up, much less walk far enough that they couldn’t see him. They met eyes and nodded, following the blood trail as quickly as they could.
It didn’t go very far. They caught up to the human quickly, within 30 seconds. He was holding his arm absentmindedly, looking left and right, seemingly searching for something. Spurred on by how injured he was, the male Turian called out to him.
“Where the hell do you think you’re going? You’re bleeding out!” He ran forward as the human rolled his eyes.
“To the hospital, of course. Where else?” He snorted in an unamused fashion and crossed his arms, then winced slightly and just let them rest at his sides. The Turians made eye contact.
“But…” she started.
“But what?” he snapped, irritable from the pain he was in. She winced slightly.
“But your bone is sticking through your arm and you’ve lost half your blood or something. How are you still walking around?” her male companion answered for her.
The Human shrugged. “I’m not scientist. But I do know we can lose way more blood than this. And it’s not like my arm is gone, it’s just a little bone.”
The Turians met eyes again. The taller shook her head.
“Okay, sir. Either way, we’re legally required to take you to the hospital.” she said, and he reluctantly agreed.

i forget sometimes that in most non-human species a broken limb is a death sentence. interesting that this idea might also amply to non-human alien races, though to a lesser degree. still impressive. i like it!

Humans could be scary.
